Take a minute to read the entire DAWN article.
As is all to often found in many Pakistani media stories, this one has built in contraditions.
One the one hand "the madrassah curicculum reform" program, funded in the background by the US through the Pak government is or has failed.
On the other hand due to current success fighting the Taliban the same school program has had modest success, but may be gaining wider acceptance by the poor and moderate madrassah miiddle class students.
The one subject I am concerned about deals with computer science. As an acquired skill it cuts both ways, against the Taliban/AQ but also useful for and to the terrorists and al Qaida who still recruit from these madrassahs.
